Betsy DeVos Asked Twitter A Question. It Did Not Go Well.

Day 1 on the job is done, but we’re only getting started. Now where do I find the pencils? :) pic.twitter.com/0vRKF1opE9

. @BetsyDeVos If YOU work in education, YOU buy the pencils, the paper, &, sometimes, a kid’s shoes. Spend a week in a school & GET A CLUE.

@BetsyDeVos you realize how NOT funny this is since most teachers buy their own supplies. But I bet you're gonna pink slip them anyway.

@BetsyDeVos At the store. Something you should know: we teachers buy pencils and supplies for our classes with our OWN money.

.@BetsyDeVos You came to and did work with no pencil? That's a materials infraction in many classrooms. Or perhaps you were unaware of this.

@BetsyDeVos I hope the one you find has a good eraser. I have a feeling you're gonna be making lots of mistakes.

@BetsyDeVos You gave the @GOP $200 million and not one of them will help you find supplies? @marcorubio?

@BetsyDeVos In one of the thousands of public schools you're about to destroy.

@BetsyDeVos I don't know, maybe go to a public school and get one?

.@BetsyDeVos is this what you plan to do with your pencil while public school teachers work hard to educate and protect students? pic.twitter.com/fzyCPlhLkb

@BetsyDeVos not in the thousands of public schools that can barely afford supplies. Looking forward to you cleaning that lil issue up.

@BetsyDeVos You worked a whole day but didn't have anything to write with? Maybe you could hold a bake sale to buy some pencils.

@BetsyDeVos The grizzlies got them. The grizzlies got everything. Please, Betsy... you have to do something to stop these horrible bears.

.@BetsyDeVos Probably should've budgeted for pencils when you were purchasing your position.

@BetsyDeVos This isn't funny. You couldn't answer basic questions about education during your hearing.

@BetsyDeVos I believe they are made in China by children who will now have a better education than most of America's kids. #shitgibbonlackey
